Algiers, Algeria
Population:
2 Million
Worst Feature:
Islamic Terrorists
Best Feature:
No French
After years of relative peace, since the ousting of The French and most
other Europeans, and becoming a predominately Muslim City in a Predominantly
Muslim Country, Algiers is once again a major trouble spot in the world, and
not a very nice place to live especially if you are Westerner.
As recently
as March 2007 the Algerian Security forces have been fighting Islamic
Militants in Algeria who have pledged their support to Al-Qaeda and Osama
Bin Laden.
The Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat, The GSPC, now dubs
itself the "Armed Branch of Al-Qaeda in Islamic Maghreb", and has claimed
responsibility for a series of deadly attacks on American and Russian
targets.
OK so Algiers is now home to our enemies in the “War on Terror” –
but at least they kicked out the French.
